What a great show. As a person who hasn't read the books, I enjoyed the show immensely. I bingwatched 2 seasons in 2 days. That just showed how spellbinding the show was. It was fresh, smart and well-directed. The plot itself wasn't something particularly groundbreaking but its exquisite timing on editing made every episode like a roller coaster that surprised you and kept you on the edge of your seat. The cast was terrific as well. Special kudos to the lead actor, Otto. What an talented actor he was. He managed to make a role that could've been just stereotyped run-and-gun bonehead to have such a depth. The show was one of the best shows I have watched in years, beating all of more well-known shows on TV these days. I'm a bit sad that the show is only on a streaming platform. I wish it would have been in a big broadcast network so it can be watched more widely. Looking for its third season and hopefully even more seasons to come.

Bing-watched the show within 2 days and I can say it is a really good show. I would recommend it. Intelligent, well-acted, well-constructed. It's not the most original show out there given the main theme is a well-worn one. However, with a smart script like this, even the most frequently-used plot can still be fresh. The most outstanding part about the show is probably the cast. Simply amazing especially the actors playing the bad roles. I wish there will be a second season.
